Beautiful beach, with great sea swimming, calm with a more family vibe in Garopaba. I recommend visiting the corners of the beach, to the north on the border with Praia da Rust there is a hill with natural pools supplied by the sea waves. To the south, beautiful rocks and a trail to Ouvidor beach.
There are no food or drink stalls, just a few vendors selling popsicles, corn and cheese.

Beautiful and peaceful beach! My favorite in the Garopaba region, I cycled around the region, going to Ferrugem and returning to the other end of the coast, where there are rocks where the waves break and form a beautiful view, you can spend hours watching them. There is very little infrastructure, very little explored.

One of our favourite beaches in the area.. check out fotos of it.. it really is that lovely!
Great surf beach, but NÉ wind makes it nice t so good..
Best access is from the northern end.. but the southern end is very cool, with millionaire house on the front..
Great body surfing to be had at the north end..

The access to this place is difficult because of 3 km of ground floor, but when you reach the beach, the magic is right in front of your eyes: white soft sand, light blue at the sea. Don't expect place to eat and drink, neither people walking to sell drink and food, just take yours. It worth. Do not forget to take your trash back, because that piece of paradise has to be always clean. Very good for families with children (not babies).

This is a great example of what residents can achieve when they are organized. This is a small beach with a closely knit community which keeps the beach preserved. A very nice place!

Vou passar uns dias no litoral catarinense no mês de janeiro. Gostaria de conhecer algumas praias de Garopaba. Como fica o trânsito na cidade, estacionamento nas praias, vias de acesso as praias mais retiradas. Obrigado

Olá Gilberto. Garopaba tem uma peculiaridade. Se chegares direto na praia, vai achar o local feio e vai embora. Quando ficar em Garopaba, procure a praia da esquerda de quem chega (Morrinhos). Ali a praia é melhor. Aproveite o centro à noite. O movimento é intenso, mas sempre tem um local para estacionar. São ruas com segurança.
Já em relação às demais praias, a da Barra é muito tranquila de chegar, estacionar e aproveitar (só tem um restaurante no local), indico pela beleza natural; a do Rosa (norte) tem pouquissimo estacionamento, mas é muito bonita (o acesso final é feito por um caminho (passarela de madeira) por dentro da mata. Não tem restaurantes...tem que caminhar até a Rosa Sul se quiseres comer algo. A da Ferrugem tem acesso bom, é bonita, tem estacionamento facilitado e bons restaurantes. É a praia da juventude. Acho que são as principais... espero ter ajudado

Hola Celso. Mi nombre es Cecilia, soy de Córdoba, y te quería hacer una consulta en cuanto a Playa de Barra. Pretendemos viajar con mi familia el próximo verano allí y tenemos dudas sobre la playa y la laguna que la atraviesa. Vamos con niñas pequeñas y nos gustaría saber si es sencillo cruzar el río para llegar al mar; si es profundo o no; y si tenés otro dato que puedas enviarme. Muchas gracias!!

Hola Cecilia Esta pequeña playa es una de las más lindas de la región : podes acceder desde el camino de acceso a Garopaba o cruzando desde Ferrugem la desembodura de la laguna : cuando la laguna se llena de agua de lluvia rompe la desembocadura y desagua en el mar... en el peor de los casos puede llegar a la mitad del torso de un adulto Nosotros hemos cruzado sin problemas a nuestros hijos cuando pequeños sin problemas ( no es un río) ; hace 20 años que vacacionamos en la región La zona de la playa pegada almorro te ofrece zonas sin olas de poca profundidad ideal para los niños ; la playa es muy cuidada por sus moradores y es de las más limpias ( con cestos dispuestos sobre la playa) Muy recomendable
